For the past two years, Ubisoft's pre-E3 press conferences have been anchored by footage and discussion of Watch Dogs. Now that that game has launched to blockbuster sales, will Ubisoft have a sequel reveal in store for this year's show? Perhaps tactical open world shooter The Division, briefly teased at last year's press conference, will fill in that hole. Perhaps a completely new franchise will be on hand.

Or maybe Ubisoft will continue to lean on its lineup of annual (or semi-annual) franchises. Assassin's Creed: Unity seems all but guaranteed to make an appearance following leaks back in March, as does the new Far Cry title already confirmed for a November launch. And don't forget about open-world driving game The Crew, which is set for a delayed release later this year.

And as we prepare to bring you all the news as it happens, rest assured we'll have our fingers hovering over the Beyond Good and Evil 2 macro button on our keyboards.
